Answer:
The persuasive writing style.
Explanation:
Which writing style problem is most apparent (obvious) in Statement 1?
- Take a look at Statement 1:

- Recall the types of writing style:
1. Expository 2. Descriptive 3. Persuasive 4. Narrative
ANSWER:
The whole question is a note (probably from the head of sales team) to members of the sales team in an organization. The writer is exposing them to the purpose of the meeting or topics of discussion for the meeting (expository writing).
The writer is also persuading the team members to brainstorm before coming for the meeting; so as to make important contributions.
In Statement 1, the persuasion of the writer seems more like coercion. The writer is persuasive but stern about the level or quality of ideas he wants to get at the meeting.
The writing style problem that is most apparent in Statement 1 hence, is the persuasive writing style.
Muir starts off talking about how long he had been sitting by the Calypso-so long that he wasn't tired or hungry anymore. We, as the readers, think he has a bad attitude about sitting by this plant.We think this because it seems like he is describing his wait as painful(he is WAY past being tired or hungry). However, the next sentence contrasts with this idea. When the sun sets, Muir suddenly gets this jolt of purpose and energy, stronger and determined than ever before. Can you see the pattern here? As for the dialogue, it is a woman speaking, and she lives in the log house he sees. She has a negative attitude towards the swamp, while Muir has a positive one. She wonders why he would want to be in a dangerous place like the swamp, explaining that a body was found in it. She then goes on to say that it was God's mercy that Muir was able to get out of the mucky swamp.I hope this helps!
In "Sixteen" by Maureen Daly, the narrator expresses how she is an intuitive teenage girl; she knows the trends, and she is up-to-date with the world. She also immediately insists that "I’m not so really dumb. I know what a girl should do and what she shouldn’t". Not only does she describe what she should and shouldn't wear, when she arrives at the skating rink she describes the sky and her surroundings, implying that she is highly detail oriented.
After she states twice that she was not a "dumb" girl, and giving reasons why she wasn't, we realize she was trying to reassure herself of the fact. All logic is out the window once she mets with her love interest, and she feels dumb for believing that he would call her; "for all of a sudden I know, what the stars knew all the time ---- he’ll never, never call --- never".
I believe answer C) he doesnt want to reveal his escape <span />
